Jason Smith commented on COUCHDB-1643:
--------------------------------------
For what it's worth, I wrote a 100% Node.js view server. It's about 200 lines
of JavaScript.
https://github.com/iriscouch/couchjs
Actually it just implements `couchjs`. It runs the same "main.js" view server
as the SpiderMonkey one. Only a tiny fraction of the unit tests fail (mostly
E4X stuff).
It's quick and dirty. But it makes the point. Node.js is good bang-for-buck.
What would "V8" bring to the table?
